Scrubs:

As an intern you don’t have much free time so when you finally get a night off it’s important to do something constructive with it – like catching up with some fine girls! However having blown yet another chance, JD’s evening comes to an end when he starts to feel bad and is taken into hospital.

With Dr Cox wheeling him into Sacred Heart on Thanksgiving Day, JD thinks it’s going to be great to be looked after by his friends, but his opinion quickly starts to change when he experiences everybody’s bedside manner first hand.

Being violated by Elliot’s cold hands is only the start. He doesn’t want her to see his unmentionables and besides she is rough and businesslike, reminding him of having the crap beaten out of him by his older brother. Finally Kelso’s rounds make him feel like Rodin’s masterpiece on display rather than a person.

Whilst Elliot contemplates how she can be more comforting and empathise with patients despite her Yeti hands, and Kelso and Cox slug it out over the treatment of an old colleague, JD’s diagnosis brings more problems.

He’s got a simple case of appendicitis but JD sees Turk as a friend who plays ‘Walrus’ all day rather than a surgeon, and doesn’t want him to do the operation. As his condition gets worse the choice is taken out of his hands and Turk as the on-call surgeon slices him up.

When he comes to, JD realises when it comes to work Turk is a capable and skilled surgeon, and anytime in the future if he needs surgery again Turk is the only one JD wants inside of him.
